Steps for Preparing and Baking the Chocolate and Peanut Butter Bundt Cake:

  • In a small bowl, place the butter and melt it in the microwave or in a bain-marie, let it cool slightly.

    In a large bowl, put the now lukewarm butter and peanut butter and whisk the ingredients well to combine them nicely, add the whole eggs, granulated sugar and mix them into the batter.

  • When the mixture is homogeneous, add the milk and incorporate it into the batter, finally add the sifted flour with cocoa powder and baking powder.

    Mix the batter well, it should be smooth and homogeneous, add the chocolate chips and stir the mixture well.

  • Butter and flour the bundt cake pan, pour in the batter (it will be slightly thick but that’s how it should be), level it with the back of a spoon, then spread a thin layer of peanut butter on top, and make circular movements with the blade of a knife to mix it with the chocolate batter on the surface.

    Also add the chocolate chips on top of the batter.

    Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 30 minutes (always do the toothpick test).

  • Let the chocolate bundt cake cool before consuming.

Notes

We used less sugar, only 1/2 cup because we don’t like overly sweet desserts, if you prefer sweeter flavors, feel free to use 2/3 cup.
